Utterly flamboyant, coquettish, playful, coy, flirtatious. She dances this piece with an extraordinary maturity. At 15, her dancing here, is almost perfect, danced by a true genius. It is only possible for a dancer born with exceptional talent. The dance is almost contemporary, humorous and funny with total abandonment. One sees Rumanian girls' gymnastic heritage. She tumbles backwards effortlessly, Jumps high with two legs totally split airborne. Footwork is swift, nimble, feather-light.
@S Cosulich "It's very cute and she did an amazing job, but (...)" this was my first comment, isn't this nice enough for you ? I remained polite and expressed my opinion as I'm allowed to. I commented this video 6 years ago for god's sake, I didn't like the choreography but you did, good for you. You're starting to really piss me off... There are so many rude people commenting on youtube, but no, apparently I wasn't nice enough... In your first comment you replied "no" as if I was wrong. How dare you tell me "no", it is not a fact, it's an opinion, just because you like something doesn't mean that everybody has to like it. You're the one who is not being nice here, you're waisting my time and my energy... Leave me alone, keep watching videos you like, I'll do the same.
also, you should keep a "stretching" position for at least 10 seconds or it will be no use. And when you exhale, you can always go a little further (it's biological). (:
It's so amazing that even then, at 15, she had amazing stage presense and acting skills. Not many teenagers do. Does anybody know what she did for her classical piece?
she won the prix, so obviously the judges like it! It shows off Alina's dancing technique, ability to play with the music, to act, to let go of herself, to be an entertainer, and a dancer who is open to different styles and dance types.
this neoclassical piece reflects Alina's background in gymnastics and acrobatics before she became a ballet dancer. Those who are saying "wtf is this?" and "can't she pick between ballet and gymnastics?" are being closed minded and, well, ignorant. nowadays everything is a pastiche of a million different things. we're in a postmodern age, people.
Watching this, I'm thinking that I've been doing nothing comparing to her and I'm 15 myself. Bravo, Alina, thank you for all you've done! And making not only me, but so many people, proud to be Romanian!
for the people who think she's confused with gymnastics, clearly she just decided to do something a bit different, i'm sure she's quite right in the head. i think someone called it neo-classical? well in any case i think it was fun to watch and shows she has diversity!
Executie perfecta, multa gratie si talent. Superb. Frumoasa coreografia si originala muzica, mix intre tango si citeva note din valsul Valurile Dunarii. Bravo Alina
Who would imagine that the girl living upstairs will become first balerina. Thas is a romanian dream (one of few): the girl from a simple family and a harsh neigbourhood becomes a star!!! And what a star! Romanians, wake up and cherish your true values
Un grande talento ! Stupenda, anche la coreografia mi piace molto, originale e bellissimo il mix di musica dove ad un certo punto si inseriscono le note del valzer "Le onde del Danubio" del grande compositore rumeno I. Ivanovici. Mare talent ! Superba, imi place mult si coreografia, originala si foarte frumoasa compositia muzicala unde intr-un anumit moment se imbina notele valsului "pe valurile Dunarii" de marele compozitor roman I. Ivanovici.
she is crazy talented. and the gymastics explains why she's so flexible. i also liked how she really captured a character. it was brilliant, but also a little weird.
I wish somebody knew what this music is! Nobody seems to be sure. perhaps it is a medley or something, but the same theme is throughout the whole piece so I don't know. Anyhow... Alina is amazing! She is so adorable! And only 15 too! Wow!
Incredible! . Saw here in romeo and juliet not that long ago and could still.pull.it off. Oh i adore her. Simply divine dancer that was a natural performer without exaggeration. Like a little feather.
I used to have a "don't fight gravity" and "forget you have arms" mantra when stretching. It will lead you through times of pain but it works pretty well.
This piece is so cool and she performed it with so much character!! But I don't like it as a competition piece because it showcases more of her acting and flexibility than her technique. She is adorable though!
Алина на конкурсе в Москве покорила публику своим и виступлениями в номере Мушкитер и в вариацыях получила достойную награду талантливая необыкновенно балерина
@ClaudinesWorld That's what the cmommentator says in this video. She's got angry at Alina's performance. Maybe at its choreography, too. I can't get all of their words, because these are cut.
I love the commentators at the end, not being able to hide their surprise: oh la la la laa!!!! xD I don't understand the language but I understand they are surprised by this young talent.
AMAZING! I am also fifteen and in comparison I feel like an amature trying to dance. She is beautiful. Not only at ballet she is able to tumble in point shoes. That is extremely hard to do!
this dance is so cute!!! it reminds me of a three musketeer sort of thing, it would be really cool if someone made a three musketeer ballet ( if they haven't already )
però al minuto 1,28 sono inserite anche le note del valzer "Onde del Danubio" scritto del compositore rumeno I. Ivanovici. Quindi un mix di tango e un po di valzer. Una scelta originale con un risultato stupendo. Come l'esecuzione di Alina.
This is one of the most charming routines I have ever seen!
Just when I thought I couldn't love Alina anymore than I already do!!!
i can watch it a thousand time, to the point where i every single step, but i wont get sick of it!
i love this dance~
この時テレビで見てました。クロード・ベッシーさんが
「なんて事でしょう!!こんな踊りを踊らせるなんて!!!」って凄い怒ってたの覚えてますw
私もバレエにそう造詣が深い訳ではないですが流石に酷いと思った思い出。
月日が経ってからコジョカルさんがロイヤルで踊っているのを知って、あの時の酷いコンテンポラリーを
踊ってたお嬢さんがこんなに素敵なダンサーになって…と感無量でした
Superb Alina,te iubim.
THIS IS SUPER AMAZING!
This is pure magic =)
precious
whoa that is verrrrrry cool. i love the dance
Белиссимо 👍👍👍👍👍фантастика, я в восторге
Could anyone upload her other dance please?

15 are a difficult age...Still love Alina nowadays!
excelent!!
I LOVE that she did this at Lausanne. What a brave girl. Viva Alina!
elle m'épate toujours...
I like it!!!
It's very cute and she did an amazing job, but really don't like the choregraphy, it's more gymnasitc than dance...
That's just what I thought, she is wonderful but the choreography was dreadful!
@S Cosulich Yes, but that does not take away the fact that I don't like this choreography.
@S Cosulich How can I know if I like something or not without watching ? Stupid comment.

1:23 amazing grande jete!!!
1:23 there now it’s a link :) how are you, seven years later lol
@ballettina It's to bad that's not on youtube
ha I found this comical. Very good she transformed into the character!
you people do not know who you are commenting on obviously, just about the greatest balletrina of our time you are just being ignorant
catchy & cute :P
Does anyone know how to get the splits quick because I am so freaking close and I still feel bad about myself!
wow, she's good!!I like that she used some flat feet in the beginning of her dances
i would've been scared to dance with the pointy sword! hehe (:
how old is she now???!
love her to bits and love her here too but I felt the variation was a bit too gymnastic-like...
no she didn't. she won a scholarship. that year the grand prix was not awarded
also, you should keep a "stretching" position for at least 10 seconds or it will be no use. And when you exhale, you can always go a little further (it's biological). (:
its neo-classical darling
Well... could you... tell me.... PLEASE? lol
Не зашло...
are you really? lolz
that was horrible form cojocaru!! im sorry but what choregraphy is that! IT'S SO BAD! that's not even ballet if u do flic flacs at the end.
すごく上手だし、可愛らしくて魅力的だけど、解説の人の言うことがよく分かる…これはバレエというよりは体操みたい
コンテンポラリー枠やし、多少はいいんじゃね
Funny and really unique. She put a smile on my face with this performance. Thank you Alina.
It's so amazing that even then, at 15, she had amazing stage presense and acting skills. Not many teenagers do. Does anybody know what she did for her classical piece?
Adorable!! Super talented!
aw, she's so fuckin' adorable.
lol she looked older then! I love her she is my fav dancer and my idol!!!!
WONDERFUL!! Great interpretation, great ability, wonderful mixture of dance and gimnastics, I loved it-
amazing! i like how it's a bit different than a regular variation with a tutu
she won the prix, so obviously the judges like it! It shows off Alina's dancing technique, ability to play with the music, to act, to let go of herself, to be an entertainer, and a dancer who is open to different styles and dance types.
this neoclassical piece reflects Alina's background in gymnastics and acrobatics before she became a ballet dancer.

it's a tango called " hola guapa"
she's one of a kind... I love her
shes not only showing she can dance but also showing how strong and flexible she is.
i love it! she makes the acro look good with the ballet! maybe to much swaying motion? really cool though!
Watching this, I'm thinking that I've been doing nothing comparing to her and I'm 15 myself. Bravo, Alina, thank you for all you've done! And making not only me, but so many people, proud to be Romanian!
for the people who think she's confused with gymnastics, clearly she just decided to do something a bit different, i'm sure she's quite right in the head. i think someone called it neo-classical? well in any case i think it was fun to watch and shows she has diversity!
Executie perfecta, multa gratie si talent. Superb.
Frumoasa coreografia si originala muzica, mix intre tango si citeva note din valsul Valurile Dunarii.
Bravo Alina
BRAVISSIMA!!!
and as always...she's got an adorable stage presence!
Who would imagine that the girl living upstairs will become first balerina. Thas is a romanian dream (one of few): the girl from a simple family and a harsh neigbourhood becomes a star!!! And what a star!
Romanians, wake up and cherish your true values
wow. that was great. Her technique is awesome, the choreography is unbelievable, and I like the idea of a girl dancing with a sword.
Un grande talento !
Stupenda, anche la coreografia mi piace molto, originale e bellissimo il mix di musica dove ad un certo punto si inseriscono le note del valzer "Le onde del Danubio" del grande compositore rumeno I. Ivanovici.
Mare talent !

Incredible!!! Great!!!
Unique! The flicflacs and the ending positon! 😍
I just saw her in Giselle at ABT i cried, her grace is amazing. I think she is the best dancer in the world right now.
this is originaly!!!...and she is very good dancer!!!!amazing !!!!
she is crazy talented. and the gymastics explains why she's so flexible. i also liked how she really captured a character. it was brilliant, but also a little weird.
Haha, I can see Alina was in the transition from a gymnast to a ballerina.
even now she's still doing awesome! You guys should check out some of her more recent performances.
1:16! oh my god hahaha
she is one of the best dancers, and she can more than just ballet
Really charming! Wonderful style.
this is genious
Lindaa! Amo muitoo
Amazing! And sooo funny !
VEEEEERRY GOOD!!
I wish somebody knew what this music is! Nobody seems to be sure. perhaps it is a medley or something, but the same theme is throughout the whole piece so I don't know. Anyhow... Alina is amazing! She is so adorable! And only 15 too! Wow!
解説(?)の人が怒ってるのが木になる...何に?
simfreeborn992 ご説明ありがとうございます!
なるほど、振り付けに対してなんですね😊コジョカルに対してじゃないことに安心(?)しました!
that was sooo cool! *watches again*
Alina👧🏻👧🏻🩰🩰
Fabulous! One of the best dancers in the world.
Incredible! . Saw here in romeo and juliet not that long ago and could still.pull.it off. Oh i adore her. Simply divine dancer that was a natural performer without exaggeration. Like a little feather.
just because ot had backflips in doesnt mean it was move gymnastics than ballet what about the rest of it
what is this music. and i loved the choreography.....maybe not the idea but the choreography was good
I used to have a "don't fight gravity" and "forget you have arms" mantra when stretching. It will lead you through times of pain but it works pretty well.
Great, very original.
Does someone know who is the composer and what is the music title?
Thanks
これは振り付けが悪い気がする…
This piece is so cool and she performed it with so much character!! But I don't like it as a competition piece because it showcases more of her acting and flexibility than her technique. She is adorable though!

If you are talking to me, I'm not.
But It's just that I don't like those flexed feet.
Cause the rest is so good and that's just bad...
yes. don't feel bad. i am 21..and a male..and i still have at least a year before i've even on pointe...you will improve. we all will.
AMAZING! I am also fifteen and in comparison I feel like an amature trying to dance. She is beautiful. Not only at ballet she is able to tumble in point shoes. That is extremely hard to do!
this dance is so cute!!! it reminds me of a three musketeer sort of thing, it would be really cool if someone made a three musketeer ballet ( if they haven't already )
I love this (:
This dance isn't her style at all, she is so much better in romantic era dances. But she is flexible!
she didn't win the competition. she won a scolarship at the royal ballet. i should know i was there
wow thats very different to most of the ballet iv seen, i hope she continues to do well with her ballet.
però al minuto 1,28 sono inserite anche le note del valzer "Onde del Danubio" scritto del compositore rumeno I. Ivanovici. Quindi un mix di tango e un po di valzer. Una scelta originale con un risultato stupendo. Come l'esecuzione di Alina.
does anybody know, whats the name of this beatiful composition...thanx in forward..:)))))
Is the guy at the beginning speaking japanese? o:
That girl is gooood. *bows down*
yes i found something very similar! thanks so much :)
@ClaudinesWorld- Do something better if you're so classy and talented.
oww , it was like gymnastics not ballet !!:(, but she's good
trust me alina is 27 and nadia is 44 (or so) you do the math.
Is this a real ballet, or just a solo piece made up for her
